They do look like them I must admit.
So maybe there is a little bit of Italian in it after all!

It cost me a lot to restore it. And I can tell you a secret: I made the rubber sealings for the rear lights from shoe-soles. Maybe the new owner will notice sometime.

The car looks good, I must admit. But have you ever driven one? With drum-brakes?

The car in question is Swiss

No.I've never driven a Giulietta.
I did have a 1964 Giulia Sprint GT step-front, which was so beautiful I could forgive it anything!

Sorry, yes - you're right, it is Swiss.  But not Ghia-Aigle.

Beutler Porsche 356

Yes it is, but there are still a couple of questions to answer for the point, like when it's from.
Also it's described as a 356 **** ******  (something else).

Have a look into it but I'm in the USA until the week after next and don't have my files with me so I won't be able to give you a definitive answer until I get back.
